Abstract
We pose 100 new conjectures on representations involving primes or related things, which might interest number theorists and stimulate further research. Below are five typical examples: (i) For any positive integer , there exists such that and are both prime. (ii) Each integer can be written as with such that and are both prime. (iii) For any rational number , there are distinct primes with . (iv) Every can be written as , where is a prime with and both practical, and is either prime or practical. (v) Any positive rational number can be written as , where and are positive integers with a square (or a positive square), is the -th prime and is the prime-counting function.
